Senior AI Engineer

About the Position

We are seeking a Senior AI Engineer with expertise in building production agentic and LLM systems for a leading global investment management company headquartered in London.

Responsibilities

• Build agentic workflows that reason over research reports, transcripts, filings, and news, and present portfolio managers with a clear view of what was found, what is missing, and how confident the system is in each answer.
• Engineer automated quality checks on unstructured source content before ingestion - empty or blank content, truncation, extraction fidelity, coverage gaps across expected document sets.
• Build vendor delivery validation: detect and quantify parsing and format defects in incoming feeds, feed them back to vendors and the data sourcing team, and fix extraction where it sits with us.
• Build evaluation harnesses, benchmarks, and guardrails for agent output - groundedness, factual accuracy, relevance, and citation/provenance, so any claim can be traced back to a specific file and snippet.
• Ship monitoring and dashboards surfacing data-quality findings, confidence levels, and coverage gaps to both engineering and PM audiences.
• Work directly with the platform engineering team, data sourcing, and portfolio managers to turn business expectations into measurable, automated quality standards.

Requirements

• Proven experience building production agentic and LLM systems - multi-agent or orchestrated workflows that reason across heterogeneous sources (PDFs, audio transcripts, file shares, databases) and surface confidence, gaps, and provenance back to end users.
• Hands-on experience engineering document ingestion and extraction pipelines: parsing, chunking, and the automated quality controls around them - detecting empty or truncated content, vendor feeds delivering the wrong section of a document, duplication, encoding, and OCR defects.
• Experience building evaluation and guardrail infrastructure for AI systems: groundedness scoring, citation and provenance (file name plus the exact snippet retrieved), eval harnesses, regression suites, and LLM observability.
• Strong production Python engineering - services and pipelines that run unattended, with testing, CI, and code standards. This is not a notebook-and-analysis role.
• Able to work from a deliberately vague brief, shape the problem directly with business stakeholders, and explain technical results to non-technical audiences.

Nice to Have

• Experience tuning retrieval quality - chunking strategy, embedding choice, retrieval evaluation.
• Structured and time-series data-quality experience (coverage gaps, nulls in critical columns).
• ETL pipelines and fluency in SQL.
• Previous experience working with investment professionals in a fast-paced environment.
• Working knowledge of Snowflake, Linux/UNIX, Git, Jira.

We Offer

• Competitive salary
• Hybrid work model
• Opportunity to work with cutting-edge technology in a leading global investment management company
